UCD School of Architecture, Planning and Environmental Policy is delighted to present Sam Jacob of Sam Jacob Studio, London, as part of this lecture series at University College Dublin.

Sam Jacob is the third and final of three architects that will speak as part of an inaugural UCD Master of Architecture Lecture and Masterclass Series, in 2019.

_____

The lecture series is free and all are welcome to attend the lectures whether directly involved in architecture, education or not.

A key aim of the lecture series is to share the work and practice of architects and students in education with a broader audience. UCD Architecture is therefore pleased to offer a series of public talks to which all are welcome to discuss, consider and debate ideas in architecture, ideas which inevitably impact and enrich our individual and collective daily lives.

The UCD Master of Architecture Masterclass Series is supported by Dublin Port Company as part of the Dublin Port Perspectives Program. The lecture series is presented in association with the Architectural Association of Ireland.

ABOUT UCD Master of Architecture Lecture and Masterclass Series.

Working under the theme of Our State of In-between, the aim of the series is to make more public the ways and means by which architects are educated, by inviting architects and educators with an international track record in architectural education, practice and public engagement to share their teaching, learning and practice experience at a public lecture.

Students of architecture at UCD in their final year of education will then participate in a masterclass or discussion with the invited speakers.
